Why my website suddenly disappeared from Google searches ?

My site is several years old and I have always ranked really well for my targeted search terms but at the weekend  my website disappeared from searches. I'm still indexed but I don't show up via keyword searches. If someone can help with why this happened so suddenly and without warning I would really appreciate it.

Google filters and ways to combat them

 

In selecting sites in response to a query Google filters out a lot of sites suitable for a formal query terms, but for one reason or another cause of doubt and suspicion. That these doubts and suspicions, and we'll talk. They are called filters. Do them a lot of Google.

 

    * "Sandbox." Usually applied to new sites that have emerged over the last year. Thanks to this filter pages do not fall into the search results for highly competitive phrases, although on rare phrases site may be present in the extradition. Google uses a system called "credibility", based on the credibility of sites linking to your new site. In order to quickly get out of the sandbox to zaimet more such authoritative references. It is not easy and sometimes impossible. Then we can try to broaden your site's content to not take the quality and quantity of the rare sentences.

    * "-30". This filter is used by Google for sites that use black techniques such as doorway pages and redirects by javascript. When Google detects this on your site, your site is reduced by 30 positions. To get around this is usually enough to remove the redirect.

    * "Bombing". Applies to sites that have a large number of incoming links from the same text. Google rightly considers that it is unnatural, that everywhere the link text the same. If Google is already apply this filter, then perhaps it is best to write request re-inclusion site. If you are afraid that this filter is about to be applied to your site, you can ask people to change the link to you or buy some links with a variety of text.

    * "Duplicate content". Filter is applied to sites that use borrowed content that is already published on other sites. In the case of this filter to the site, the site is impaired and if he does not have enough tangible incoming links, your site gets into the "omitted results" which are issued only to the user if he clicks on the link of the same name on the last page. The main actions to overcome this filter should be directed to remove duplicate content. Write letters to those who took advantage of your content, with the requirement to remove your content, write their host, complain google in the end.

    * "More results". Google can index your pages and put them in the sub-index. Pages are placed there by Google are not considered worthy, but they are used in cases where not enough good pages of Google for the request. To avoid this filter is usually quite a few incoming links.

    * Domain Age. " This filter is closely related to the "sandbox". It is based on the assumption that older domains have more credibility than just appeared. Influence here on that either difficult to correct the situation may be links from authoritative sites. You can still outbid the old domains.

    * "Omitted results". Pages of your site may fall into the omitted search results and will only be displayed if the user dolistaet to the last page and clicks the link of the same name, which is highly unlikely, that actually drop your pages from the search. Reasons for getting there - the lack of incoming links, duplicate content, duplicate page titles and meta tags, and weak internal perelinkovka pages. To remedy the situation, change the meta tags and page titles, fix duplicate content, and add external links.

    * "The degree of confidence." Like the PR (PageRank) the degree of confidence (Google Trust Rank) has many influencing factors. Of the known factors can be noted age of the site, the number of authoritative incoming links, number of outgoing links, the quality of internal relink. All sites go through this filter and if your Trust Rank is low, it neativno affect any of your positions in search results. As the new and old sites may have equally high or low Trust Rank. In order to optimize it to improve other known factors affecting the degree of confidence.

    * "Links.htm". This filter is punishing sites that have been seen in a reciprocal link exchange. Link Exchange - this old method to increase the position in Google, which is not encouraged by Google. Instead of using links try to call the page in a different way, for example coolsites. Reciprocal link exchange is no longer as effective as it once, it might be worth, and in general to abandon this practice.

    * "Link farms". Link farms - are the sites (or pages) that contain many links are usually quite different topics, perelinkovannye together randomly. Participation in such a farm can greatly lower the position of the site or general site may be banned. Way to combat this phenomenon, only one - not to engage in such fraud.

    * Sotsitirovanie. This filter analyzes the structure of the external links to your site. If next to the links to your site are links to porn and online casinos, Google considers that your website is also linked to porn and casinos. This could damage the real theme of the site and he will be demoted to the topic relevant phrases. To prevent this from happening you need to carefully check where you buy links.

    * "A lot of links at once." This filter blocks the site when he has too rapidly growing number of external links. This can lead to a complete website with all the Bani search engines. To prevent this should be cautious to buy links or use the link spam.

    * "A lot of pages at once." The essence of the filter is that the normal site can not grow too fast and if a certain number of pages in the site grows extremely fast, it is likely to artificially-generated content is not worthy of attention search engine. Some believe that the 5000 pages per month - is the limit, but many believe that this figure may depend on various factors. The result of this filter may be placing the page in the "omitted results" and sometimes in severe cases to a complete Banu site. If your site takes content from public sources or dynamically formaruet page should be to ensure that the number of new pages should not exceed 5000 per month to avoid the effect of this filter. Depending on how big and famous you have a website, this figure can vary, but in any case, it is worth remembering about this filter and not get involved in the creation of new URLs.

    * "Broken Link". Broken internal links lead to the fact that the search bot can not get the page content, and, accordingly, to cache and put it in the index. If your home page has links to all the other pages on your site it could badly affect the search results and overall performance quality of your site such as PR. It is not only bad in terms of SEO in terms of site design. It is also bad for your visitors, which can reduce traffic and bad positions in search engines. Make sure your site right footer that site map contains all of your page and check out my site for any broken links.

    * Download Time. " This filter is very simple. If a search bot not wait for the page of Google for some time, he just misses her. This will lead to that page will not be cached and will not be in the index. These pages will never fall into the results on Google. So make sure that your pages are not too huge and loaded fast enough.

    * "Over-optimization." Under the action of this filter can reach sites stuffed with key phrases, with too high density hand column, with too close of keywords, with overloaded meta tags. The recommendation is only one - do not overdo it with the optimization of your site.

If it was there for years and all of a sudden vanished form serp result, then it could be for 2 reasons mostly. one, if you didnt promore your sire for a while. if yuo didnt build any backlinks or added any new pages to your site for a while, then yuor ranking will suffer. two, you all of a sudded ran a link building campaign for which your backlinks increased suddenly. if it is the first one, then you need to do a little link building and your site will slowly come back. if it is the second one, then no worries. this is temporary flactuation and your site shoul dcome back up wtihin a week or two at the most. in either cases, keep working on building backlinks to make sure yuor ranking stays stable

Sometime this happens even for a reputed website, this is called Google dance. I hope everything must have been on track by now ! if you have not done anything wrong and bad with Google Bot ;)

Two reasons why your website disappeared in Google. First, your competitors may rank high on that keyword and their sites are always updated that's why spiders consider them to be in the top ranks on Google. Second, Google penalized you. Maybe you're doing black hat strategies like spamming or keyword stuffing.
